I tried to clone an input fields position (adding a border to
highlight it with 4 divs) but IE 7 throws an error telling me, "style
is null or not an object". I found a workaround with using the
cumulativeOffset object.
Here the code:
function highlightElem(element) {
element = $(element);
var cumulativeOffset = element.cumulativeOffset();
var top = $('highlightTop');
//top.clonePosition(element, {setWidth: false, setHeight: false,
offsetLeft: -2, offsetTop: -2}); //doesn't work
top.setStyle( { top: ( cumulativeOffset.top - 2 ) + 'px', left:
( cumulativeOffset.left - 2 ) + 'px', width: ( element.getWidth() +
4 ) + 'px', height: '1px' } );// works
top.show();
[...] // similar for the other 3 borders
}
Any ideas what I am doing wrong here?
ps.
